A quick visit to the fields between the welcome showers.

Small White (Pieris rapae). |
I parked at the usual spot next to the Lucerne Fields but things were extremely mud as expected so when I walked up stream my height grew quite quickly as the layers of mud built up.
As I walked I found several Small White (Pieris rapae) butterflies on the wing which surprised me as the weather wasn't too good, there were also a couple of smaller white's but they didn't land and I didn't managed to Identify them.
